Harlem Bespoke: The church on Edgecombe at the corner of 140th Street had been sold to developers for
$7.5 million back in 2017 but now it appears that the powers that be want to take away forthcoming landmark protection so that it can all be demolished. Landmarks now is proposing to remove Mt. Calvary Church on 140th and Edgecombe (and the two adjacent brownstones) from the proposed Dorance Brooks Historic District which goes up for official commission review on
Tuesday February 2nd. Which likely means a new tall building will likely replace it. Below is a quick link to generate a letter showing your support with including Mt. Calvary Church in the proposed Dorrance Brooks Historic District:
